​Item si suspectus sit procurator1 aut in uinculis aut in hostium praedonumue potestate,

​Likewise, if a procurator is suspected, or in chains, or in the power of enemies or robbers,

Syntax notes1 item
  1. 3.3.19.prsuspectus sit procurator

    The verb sit (present subjunctive, third-person singular) not only serves as a copula for the first complement suspectus, but also functions as the verb of existence/state for the subsequent coordinate prepositional phrases in uinculis and in hostium praedonumue potestate, sharing procurator as the common subject.
